Cover crops reduce weed seedbanks in maize-cassava systems in southwestern Nigeria

Cover crops reduce weed seedbanks in maize-cassava systems in southwestern Nigeria

Weeds are a major constraint to crop production in smallholder farms in tropical Africa. The weed seedbank and annual recruitment are the main sources of weed infestation in crops. This study was carried out in Ibadan, Nigeria, to evaluate the effect on the seedbank of two types of planted fallow (...
